Bullet's line out of context is misleading. 11 points through 3.5 quarters on 5/14 shooting, all caught up trying to show he is faster than De'Aaron Fox.

Bullet scored 7 empty points in the last half of the final quarter, when the Nix were behind by a dozen, and Sac was playing soft. Garbage points for a garbage player.

Bullet's Sunday matinee line v. Clips was 8 pts on 3/11 shooting in 28 minutes; he "led" the Nix to a 36-point halftime deficit with a staggering -25 in 16 minutes.

In Thursday's loss to the Cavs, Bullet euthanized what should've been a rare NIX win by leaving his feet to throw a characteristically stupid jump pass right into the waiting arms of Jordan Clarkson, resulting in a clear path foul, two free throws, and a 3-point shot on the ensuing possession. Bullet followed that up with a clanged three pointer. One point lead becomes a four-point deficit. Never recovered.

So a lot of times it's not even his raw number of turnovers or missed shots, it's the timing of them. Bullet has an uncanny knack for giving the ball over at crucial times either to snuff out a comeback, or to surrender a lead; saw it with the Mavs, still seeing it with the Nix.
